Monster, has been making waves in the awards circle and has won several of
them; most notably so far- Best Screenplay @ Cannes Film Festival. The poster says “A Masterclass in Mystery”, I could totally make a case for this film to be called “A Masterclass in Screenplay” and can see why it won the award.
This film starts off with a single mother demanding answers from a school when her son reports being mistreated there. Heated discussions slowly unravel several incidents which come to define What/Who is the Monster. You get different perspectives of the story and each time, you aren’t sure whom to believe and what to trust, only for the plot to eventually reveal what’s exactly going on and even then, you may be left thinking about this film for a little while, second-guessing your own understanding of what you watched.
While I can’t reveal anymore without spoiler stuff, I can say that what I perceived to be true, wasn’t. And the film has some commentary on our perception and how/why we choose to believe and are quick to pass judgment. Some commentary, because there’s so much in the film. It packs in a LOT of well-written layers that make you wonder “WHAT is going on? WHO is in the right? WHO is the victim here?”
If you like good cinema and get a chance to watch this one, please do. You’re very likely to be blown away and like me, you’ll be mad why this wasn’t Japan’s submission for the Best International Film of the year.

beautifully written masterpiece, the great use of pov screen play with

As movies with non linear storytelling goes this was really good , though the
plot was predictable but the ending was cathartic.

Such a complex film but made in a way that it doesn't make it more complex.

When the first two perspectives moves like a suspense thriller, the third
perspective totally changes the tone of the film and ends as a beautiful complex drama about human

This film shows how different narratives can lead to different stories.
It is an explorative journey into the world of kids through their lens.

We all need a life with happiness.
But we get really unpredicted. 'Monster' is not simple, it unfolds many sides through different perspectives. Saori, a single mother concerned

Wonderful use of Rashamon effect with the screenplay.

When it seems that there is nothing in the first half hour, it becomes
convincing when we get the material in the second act, but again it becomes slow, Although it is a movie
